Posted: 7/16/2004A review of The Day the Earth Stood Still by Alchemichael
Science fiction films and books have been a great love since I learned to read at three. The plot, acting and directing were/are superlative even by today's standards. But most fascinating of all was<br>the fact that the movie took place in Washington <br>where some of my family resided before their passing,so the scenery was so familiar from early childhood onward. Even at such a tender age I could sense the wisdom of Klaatu's message for this planet. It truly caused great grief that too many humans were and are still so very xenohobic,<br>violent and ignorant of the fact that All Life is precious and should be shown the reverence that (All Life;E.T. or not) deserves. Feelings haven't changed a bit now that this person's reaching Senior status in the realm of 60 years plus. I still find that child remaining inside wishing with all my heart that people ,world-wide ,would pay great attention to the message of this film. The Day the Earth Stood Still certainly has much to teach the human race even after 53 years!! <br>

Despite it's age, this movie is ageless. I'd like to make a plea to all the producers/directors looking for material to remake. Please! Remake this one! The recipe is simple. A dash of "World Peace", mixed with a generous helping of "The Fugitive", punctuated by tincture of "Star Trek". It's a no-lose concoction.
